Inspection of Gravity Sewers RECOMMENDATION: That tender T09-023, C.C.T.V. Inspection of Gravity Sewers, be awarded to Benko Sewer Service - A Division of Badger Daylighting Inc., London, Ontario at their tendered price of $229,515.72, including a contingency of $15,000. and G.S.T., and further that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized to execute an agreement satisfactory to the City Solicitor. BACKGROUND: The closed circuit inspection of gravity sewers collects and records information about the current condition and performance of the City's sanitary sewer network. This information is then used in assessing and prioritizing future maintenance programs, rehabilitation programs, and reconstruction projects for the City's sanitary sewer system. Without this information, the selection and prioritization process for these works would have to be completed with little or no understanding of the actual conditions of the sewer network, which would be considered a very undesirable methodology for such processes. This inspection process is of high value in this regard, as it is the only reliable, accurate, and economically feasible method of observing and recording the conditions of the sewer network for later analysis.
